The Nickel hardware consists of a 4-Saddle Mustang Strings-Through-Body bridge and a set of vintage-style tuning machines. The pickup installed is a Single-Coil which is wired to a master volume and master tone control. The Maple neck sits comfortably in the hand, with the ‘C’ profile allowing for comfortable reach in all registers and promoting ergonomic thumb positioning. The 9.5” radius Rosewood fingerboard provides a comfortable playing surface, and along with the 1.65” nut width facilitates different techniques such as slap bass or chordal playing. The Gloss finish is fantastic for fluid, quick transitions up and down the neck whilst the offset body design with dual cutaways allows the player to have unobstructed access to the entire register This bass is equipped with a Single-Coil pickup. This is a versatile platform which provides a deep and powerful tone. Deep, warm and rounded low ends are well complemented by the clear, precise mids and glistening trebles, making this bass sound a lot bigger than it looks. There is plenty of grunt on offer, with a fast attack that will keep your playing front and centre in any mix. The simplicity of the controls ensure that you can stay focussed on your playing whilst still offering comprehensive control of your tone.

Light scratching is apparent under direct lighting at certain angles. The edges of the headstock, particularly the front edge, demonstrate indentations and chipping of the finish around the perimeter of the headstock. This is most notable to the top and treble side edges. Some of these markings continue onto the rear face, particularly towards the top edge. Neck: Overall very good condition, the rear of the neck demonstrates some moderate indentation and a small burn mark behind the 1st fret, with the burn being located to the bass side edge of the fingerboard. Further very light indentation is apparent throughout the register which can be very slightly felt beneath the thumb in playing position.
